I'm trying to convert video clips from my camera (KonicaMinolta A200) to .vdr format, so that I can watch them using vdr, but so far I had no success. The format is MJPEG 640x480 30fps, with PCM audio (7875x16x1). I can convert it to MPEG4 with: transcode -i "$in" -x mov,ffbin -y ffmpeg -F mpeg4 -N 0x55 --no_audio_adjust -E 11025,16,1 -o "$out" but i cannot convert it to MPEG2. I found some hints that I could use mplayer to do the conversion, something like: | $ mplayer pict0002.mov -ao mpegpes -vo mpegpes:001.vdr | MPlayer 2:1.0~rc1-0ubuntu9 (C) 2000-2006 MPlayer Team | CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4600+ (Family: 15, Model: 75, Stepping: 2) | CPUflags: MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 1 3DNow2: 1 SSE: 1 SSE2: 1 | Compiled with runtime CPU detection. | Can't open joystick device /dev/input/js0: No such file or directory | Can't init input joystick | mplayer: could not connect to socket | mplayer: No such file or directory | Failed to open LIRC support.

(End of file) However, when I play this with vdr (after generating the index.vdr file with genindex), this video is not the right size, it skips every few seconds and there is no sound. What do I have to do to get a proper vdr recording? -- Dick _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
